Picot Edge Baby Blanket Using Berroco Ultra Wool Handpaint
The Design
This easy garter-stitch blanket is based on the washcloth pattern our grannies used to make. We’ve added a pretty picot edge to dress it up, but you can leave it unadorned, if you like! For a grown-up throw or afghan, just keep knitting!
In worsted-weight Berroco Ultra Wool Handpaint, this sweet blanket will be a colorful blur on your needles. This 100% superwash wool yarn is soft, sturdy, bouncy, and machine washable. And we think those hand-painted splashes of color are so happy for baby knits!
